Exclusive: How Kylie Jenner Helped Create Her $8,000 Custom LaBourjoisie Jumpsuit for Her 21st Birthday
Kylie Jenner wore two pink looks last night at her 21st birthday party, but the real showstopper was her party look: a Swarovski-crystal bedazzled pink LaBourjoisie jumpsuit made custom for the event.
ELLE.com got exclusive details from LaBourjoisie on how the outfit was constructed, along with a behind-the-scenes look at its sketches and creation. The outfit took over 10 days from inception to construction to make and has a retail value of $8,000. Jenner's stylist Jill Jacobs reached out to commission the look.
"We wanted to reimagine the perfect party dress into an amplified representation of Kylie’s most favored trends," the LaBourjoisie team told ELLE.com. "With Kylie having worn our gowns previously, Jill wanted to take that same show stopping effect in a direction we’ve never been with her before. We incorporated our signature crystallization into a jumpsuit design that would showcase Kylie’s infamous curves. Thousands of pale pink Swarovski crystals were applied to create a starburst effect, producing a hypnotizing glimmer iconic for a 21st birthday."
Jenner was also involved and was particularly focused on one thing: "From the start, Kylie was set on finding the perfect pink for the design. Once the color was chosen, we worked with Jill to achieve their collaborative vision."

LaBourjoisie has worked with the Kardashian-Jenner family before. The brand's founder Antoine Salameh expressed the brand's gratitude for being chosen to dress Jenner for such a big night in her life: “It’s been an honor to have worked with the whole Kardashian-Jenner family for so many years," Salameh said.
